VMI’s versatile QB with real gadget value and a live-arm history
Paladino has long been a multi-use piece for VMI, listed as a quarterback/punter and described as a versatile contributor who can back up multiple roles, with evidence of efficiency in relief work: in the 2016 season against The Citadel, he went 9-of-13 for 100 yards and a touchdown. He’s the kind of roster fit coaches like when they want flexibility, poise, and someone who can keep an offense alive without overcomplicating things. The catch: publicly available recent production is thin, so he reads more as a depth-and-change-of-pace weapon than a proven full-time engine.
